Hello to everybody, could someone tell me what is the status of XGL,
xcompmgr on Debian, I really want this eyecandy on my laptop but I love
Debian and I don`t wanna switch to another distribution.
I have Debian SID for ppc.
You'd have a hard time though - most of the 3D drivers are x86
binaries :(
Yes of course it is sad but I already have the open source driver for my
card (the r300 driver) installed and working on my system.
This is the Output of glxinfo:

Unknown device ID 4E56, please report. Assuming plain R300.

You can see that I have the driver working, I have heard that in some
machines with this driver XGL works very well, but I don't know how to
install only the xserver with XGL active without touch my mesa3D and my
libdrm, all the ways that I found, need the mesa3d sources and libdrm
from cvs, that is the reason because I'm asking about the status of XGL
on Debian?
But If someone has done this before I'll apreciate a few links where I
can read how to do that.
I have read:
http://wiki.x.org/wiki/ModularDevelopersGuide
http://dri.freedesktop.org/wiki/
http://www.freedesktop.org/wiki/Software/Xgl
But like you can see i need to compile Mesa3d and I don't want to make
mistakes with my current configuration. So if I'm gonna build xserver
with XGL active by myself I wanna know if some body have done this
before and I apreciate a lot if somebody could tell me how to prevent
mistakes on my system.
Summary:
Could I compile XGL Xserver without compile Mesa3d?
How could I do that?
Is gonna be soon XGL Xserver on Debian SID?
If not, what is the plan for the future of XGL on Debian?
Thanks a lot, and excuse my curiosity about this, I'm only amazing with
this eyecandy, and I'm addicted to Debian, I really wish to see this
eyecandy on the repositories of Debian soon.
